<tr>
<td>In Canada the law provides with respect to weights, that the unit shall be the standard pound (avoirdupois) of 7,000 grains, one-sixteenth part of the standard pound shall be an ounce (437 1/2 grains), one hundred pounds a cental, and two thousand pounds a ton, and that four hundred and eighty grains shall be an ounce troy.
As regards measures - That the unit or standard measure of capacity, as well for liquids as for dry measures, shall be the gallon, containing ten standard pounds weight of distilled water, weighed with the water adn air at a temperature of sixty-two degrees Fahrenheit, with the barometer at thirty inches, that the quart shall be one-fourth part of the gallon, and the pint one-eighth part of the gallon, and that eight gallons shall be a bushel.
This gallon, commonly known as the "Imperial gallon," contains 277.274 cubic inches.
The standard measure of legnth is the yard, one-third part of which it is provided shall be a foot, and the twelfth part of such foot shall be an inch.
=== IMPERIAL MEASURE. ===
Special note should be made of the fact that certain standards of weights and measures used in some of teh states of the United States are not legal (through frequently used), in Canada. These standards are not so large, being about 20 percent. smaller in capacity than the legal standards in Canada, i.e., the Imperial pint, quart and gallon.
The following tables shew the legal weight in Canada of certain commodities by the Barrel, Bushel, Bag, etc.:-
=== COMMODITIES BY THE BARREL. ===
Every barrel, half barrel, bag, sack or package must have marked thereon the naem fo the packer and the brand and the weight of the contents, and in case of feed, the composition thereof.
=== Net Weight in Dominion Standard pounds. ===
Barrel. Half-barl.
Flour 196 98
Meal. 196 98
Rolled Oats 180 90
Rolled wheats 100 50
=== APPLES. ===
Barrels used for packing apples must be 26 1/4 inches between the heads inside measure, 17 inches in diameter at head, and have a middle diameter of 18 1/2 inches, containing as nearly as possible 96 quarts.

{A slip containing rules regarding proofs is placed on the blank page}
== RULES REGARDING PROOFS ==
== READ CAREFULLY ==
== POSTAL CARD CORRESPONDENCE NOT RECOGNIZED ==
1. Do not expose proofs to strong lights, or they will fade immediately.
2. All proofs must be returned, or they will be charged for at the rate of two dollars each.
3. If order is given for more than one style, an extra charge of one dollar will be made for each additional negative, thus, one dozen of the $15.00 Cabinets finished from two negatives would cost $16.00, and if three different styles are ordered they would cost $17.00.
4. Write order plainly on the back of proofs you wish finished.
5. If proofs will not finish first-class you will find X on the back. Defects, or anything displeasing about expression will be remedied in finishing.
6. No photographs finished until a deposit is made, and the full amount must be paid before one photograph is delivered. We will not break this rule, for any person, under any circumstances.
7. If no order is given we charge from two dollars to ten dollars for making negatives.

<h2><span class="mw-headline">RULES REGARDING PROOFS</span></h2>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">READ CAREFULLY</span></h2>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">POSTAL CARD CORRESPONDENCE NOT RECOGNIZED</span></h2>
<p>1. Do not expose proofs to strong lights, or they will fade immediately.</p>
<p>2. All proofs must be returned, or they will be charged for at the rate of two dollars each.</p>
<p>3. If order is given for more than one style, an extra charge of one dollar will be made for each additional negative, thus, one dozen of the $15.00 Cabinets finished from two negatives would cost $16.00, and if three different styles are ordered they would cost $17.00.</p>

<p>rency was in 1795, when , to remedy the evils resulting</p>
<p>from the coined money in circulation being reduced in</p>
<p>weight, debased in value and composed of every variety</p>
<p>of pieces peculiar to all countries trading with this con-</p>
<p>tinenet, an Act was passed which fixed a standard of</p>
<p>value founded upon the average intrinsic worth of the</p>
<p>gold and silver coins of Great Britain, Portugal, Spain,</p>
<p>France and the United States.</p>
<p></p>
<p>{MIDDLE COLUMN}</p>
<p></p>
<p>Subsequently various Acts of the Legislatures estab-</p>
<p>lished a valuation for these pieces, at which they were</p>
<p>accepted in market overt.</p>
<p><br /> Finally, in 1858, the Province of Canada adopted</p>
<p>dollars and cents, pounds, shillings and pence as the</p>
<p>only moneys of account. In 1871 the Federal Parlia-</p>
<p>ment passed the Act (Chap. 4, Acts of 1871) respecting</p>
<p>the currency, which gave to the provinces of the</p>
<p>Dominion a uniforn currency, the single gold standard</p>
<p>adopted being that of the British sovereign of the</p>
<p>weight and fineness prescribed by the laws of the</p>
<p></p>
<p>{RIGHT COLUMN}</p>
<p></p>
<p>United Kingdom, to pass current at $4.86 2/3. Provision</p>
<p>was also made that, until otherwise ordered by Her</p>
<p>Majesty's proclamation, the gold eagle of the United</p>
<p>States, of the fixed weight of 10 pennyweights and</p>
<p>18 grains troy, and of a settled standard of fineness,</p>
<p>should be legal tender in Canada. The same Act pro-</p>
<p>vided for a gold coinage for Canada, but special Cana-</p>
<p>dian gold coinage has not been minted.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Silver coins were made legal tender to $10,and bronze</p>
<p>coin to 25 cents.</p>
<p><br /> The silver coins in use are 50, 25, 20, 20 and 5 cents</p>

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Postal Notes.</span></h3>
<p>{Indented} Postal Notes have been placed in the hands of all Money Order Post</p>
<p>Offices in Canada. They offer a convenient and safe means of transmitting</p>
<p>small sums through the mails, and their use is likely to be widespread as</p>
<p>soon as the public become acquainted with the system. Their use is con-</p>

<p>{Indented} PROMISSORY NOTES AND BILLS OF EXCHANGE.</p>
<p>--Must be payable absolutely, and not depend</p>
<p>upon a contingency. Three days' grace allow-</p>
<p>ed except when payable upon demand. Can</p>
<p>be written either in ink or lead pencil. Notice</p>
<p>of dishonour must be sent to all endorsers.</p>
<p>Those not notified are released from all liabil-</p>
<p>ity. Notice must be sent to the correct</p>
<p>address of enforser ; but if that is not known,</p>
<p>notice sent to the place where note or bill</p>
<p>purports to be made will be sufficient. Cheques</p>
<p>are treated as bills of exchange, and must be</p>
<p>presented on the day they are received or on</p>
<p>the following day. Notes and bills endorsed</p>
<p>in blank are transferable by delivery, the same</p>
<p>as if payable to bearer. Notes bear interest</p>
<p>during currency only if so stated. The loss</p>
<p>of a bill or note does not prevent the collection</p>
<p>of it, but if required the holder must give in-</p>
<p>demnity before the lost note is paid. Notes</p>
<p>and bills are payable any time during the day</p>
<p>they mature. If no time is mentioned for</p>

<p>Notes and bills falling due on Sunday are pay-</p>

<p>a lease must be in writing ; a lease, however,</p>
<p>for less than three years can be made verbally.</p>
<p>Rent must be due before it can be distrained</p>
<p>for. If tenancy continues for a term of years,</p>
<p>without any new bargain, it will be as a ten-</p>
<p>ancy from year to year. No notice is required</p>
<p>in case of the termination of a lease for a definite</p>
<p>time. A full six months' notice, ending with</p>
<p>the end of the year, is required to terminate</p>
<p>a tenancy from year to year. A monthly</p>
<p>tenancy requires a month's notice. A weekly</p>
<p>tenancy requires a week's notice to end it. A</p>
<p>covenant for renewal does not call for a renew-</p>
<p>al covenant in the new lease, unless expressly</p>
<p>called for. Destruction by fire during the</p>
<p>currency of a lease does not release the tenant</p>
<p>from payment of rent unless expressly pro-</p>
<p>vided for. The landlord is required to look</p>
<p>after the roof and outside walls, but the ten-</p>

<p>mortgage is considered by the Act to be a</p>
<p>chattel mortgage, and is subject to the above</p>

<p>evidence to prove that he did not intend to</p>

<p>{Indented} PARTNERSHIP.--Each member of a partner-</p>
<p>ship is responsible for the whole amount of</p>
<p>the debts of the firm, except in case of special</p>
<p>partnership. A special partner is only re-</p>
<p>sponsible to the amount of the capital con-</p>
<p>tributed by him, but he cannot take any part</p>
<p>in the management of the business. The act</p>
<p>of one partner binds all. Partners are bound</p>
<p>to keep good faith with each other. Partner-</p>
<p>ship may be either for a team of years or at</p>
<p>will. A partnership at will may be dissolved</p>
<p>at any time. The death of one provided for in</p>
<p>the articles of co-partnership. The sale by a</p>
<p>partner of his interest in the firm also dis-</p>
<p>solves the partnership. In the absence of</p>
<p>express agreement partners share equally. If</p>
<p>a partner retires from the firm, he should give</p>
<p>public notice of the fact and notify all persons</p>
<p>doing business with the firm. All persons</p>
<p>associated in partnership for trading, manu-</p>

<p>{Indented} MASTER AND SERVANT.--A servant is bound</p>
<p>to obey all orders of the master in the scope</p>
<p>of his employement ; a disobedience of orders</p>
<p>will justify an immediate dismissal. Both</p>
<p>master and servant are entitled to reasonable</p>
<p>notice before an engagement is terminated. A</p>
<p>servant wrongfully dismissed is only entitled</p>
<p>to the actual damage sustained ; he must credit</p>
<p>the master with any wages earned by him.</p>
<p>The master is entitled to recover the damages</p>
<p>sustained by reason of a servant deserting his</p>
<p>employ. No wages due to an employee can</p>
<p>be garnisheed (except in the case of a debt for</p>
<p>board or lodging), unless such wages exceeds</p>
<p>the sum of $25, and then only to the extent of</p>
<p>such excess. Whenever an assignment is</p>
<p>made for the general benefit of creditors, the</p>
<p>assignee shall pay, in priority to the claims of</p>
<p>the general creditors, the wages of all persons</p>
<p>in the employment of the insolvent, not ex-</p>
<p>ceeding three months' wages. All employees</p>
<p>of a company being wound up under the Joint</p>
<p>Stock Companies' Winding-up Act of Ontario</p>
<p>shall have the same priority. All employees</p>
<p>of a person whose property has been seized</p>
<p>and sold by the Sheriff under an execution</p>
<p>shall have the same priority in proceeds of the</p>
<p>sale.</p>
<p>{Indented} CONTRACTS.--Contracts may be either parol</p>
<p>or under seal. Parol contracts require a con-</p>
<p>sideration to support them. Contracts for</p>
<p>sale of goods over $40 in value must be in</p>
<p>writing or accompanied by part performance,</p>
<p>or part payment. A contract may be made</p>
<p>by letters and telegrams. Contracts made on</p>
<p>Sunday (with a few exceptions) are illegal.</p>
<p>Contracts contrary to public policy, or of an</p>
<p>immoral character, are illegal. A contract for</p>
<p>sale of land must be in writing. To make a</p>
<p>good contract the names of the parties, the</p>
<p>consideration, and the articles sold or matter</p>
<p>agreed upon should clearly appear. Fraud</p>
<p>vitiates all contracts.</p>

<p>All sales and mortgages of personal property</p>
<p>not accompanied by an immediate delivery</p>

<p>be left with the purchaser within twenty days.</p>
<p>{Indented} GUARANTEES.--Must be in writing ; will be</p>
<p>constructed strictly ; should be distinctly word-</p>
<p>ed, so that no question will arise whether</p>
<p>limited or continuing.</p>
<p>{Indented} FRAUD.--Sometimes criminal proceedings</p>
<p>may be institued for fraud. Fraud is always</p>
<p>a ground of relief. It is a fraud to conceal</p>
<p>a fraud.</p>
<p>{Indented} INTEREST.--Where interest is payable and</p>
<p>no rate has been agreed upon, the rate allowed</p>
<p>is five per cent. Any rate can be contracted</p>
<p>for. Interest is in the nature of damages, and</p>
<p>it is not allowed upon open accounts, unless it</p>
<p>is shewn that there is either an express ir im-</p>
<p>plied contract to pay interest. Before a</p>
<p>debtor can be charged with interest on ac-</p>
<p>counts, a demand of payment should be made</p>
<p>to him in writing informing him that interest</p>
<p>will be claimed from the date of the demand.</p>
<p>Interest is allowed on overdue bills and notes</p>
<p>from the day they become due. Payments are</p>
<p>applied first in payment of interest to date,</p>
<p>then in reduction of principal. The practice</p>
<p>of allowing interest on both sides of an account</p>
<p>to day of settlement is not correct. Com-</p>
<p>pound interest is not allowed, unless expressly</p>
<p>agreed upon. A contract to reduce the rate</p>
<p>of interest in case of punctual payment is good,</p>
<p>while onw to increase the rate in case of default</p>
<p>is bad. Mortgages of real estate must shew</p>
<p>on thier face the rate at which interest is to</p>
<p>be calculated.</p>

<p>Assignments are made to trustee for creditors.</p>
<p>A clause in assignment giving the trustee the</p>

<p>TWO PER CENT - Multiply the principal by the number of days to run, and divide by 180</p>
<p>TWO AND ONE-HALF PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 146.</p>
<p>THREE PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 120.</p>
<p>THREE AND ONE-HALF PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 104.</p>
<p>FOUR PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 90.</p>
<p>FIVE PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 72.</p>
<p>SIX PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 60.</p>
<p>SEVEN PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 52.</p>
<p>EIGHT PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 45.</p>
<p>NINE PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 40.</p>
<p>TEN PER CENT - Multiply by number of days, and divide by 36.</p>

Indian Corn, 56lbs. Rye,</p>
<h2><span></span><span class="mw-headline">{END OF COLUMN 1}</span></h2>
<p>56 lbs. Pease, 60 lbs. Barley,48 lbs. Malt, 36 lbs. Oats,34 lbs. Beans, 60 lbs. Flax Seed, 56 lbs. Hemp, 44 lbs. Blue Grass Seed, 14 lbs. Lime, 80 lbs. Castor Beans, 40 bls. Potatoes, 60 lbs.

<h2><span class="mw-headline">COMMERCIAL LAW.-ONTARIO.</span></h2>
<p>ARREST FOR DEBT-When a creditor has a claim of $100 or over, and can show to the satisfaction of the Judge that he has such claim and that there is reasonable and probable cause for believing that debtor is about to leave the Province with intent to defraud his creditors, an order for arrest may be granted.</p>
<p>ASSIGNMENTS-Should be made to the Sheriff of the County where the debtor resides or carries on business, unless the majority of the creditors having claims of $100 or over consent to the appointment of some other person residing within the Province. If assignment is made to a person other than the Sheriff, it is good until and unless another assignment is made to the Sheriff. Majority in number and value of creditors with claim of over $100 can change assignee. Assignment must be filed with the County Court Clerk within five days after execution, and notice inserted in {italics} Ontario Gazette {end italics} in issue next after five days after execution; for default there is a penalty of $25 per day.</p>
<p>BANKRUPTCY-There is no bankruptcy law in this Province, but a debtor may make an assignment for the benefit of creditors and ensure a ratable distribution of his assets. Executions in the Sheriff's hands prior to assignment are affected by it, unless completely executed by payment. On the administration of the estate of a deceased person, when the assets are insufficient, as on an assignment for the benefit of creditors, securities held by creditors must be valued, and the representatives of the estate, like the assignee, may purchase the securities at an advance of ten per cent. Wages to the extent of three months are preferred.</p>
<p>BILLS OF EXCHANGE AND PROMISSORY NOTES-These are subject to the commercial law in respect of days of grace, notice and protest. There are no days of grace allowed on a bill payable on demand or where to times is mentioned, but they are allowed when the bill is payable at or after sight. Notes only bear interest from the date of maturity, and then at the legal rate, unless the rate and time are expressly mentioned on the face. Loss of a bill or notes does not prevent collection, but an indemnity may be required.</p>
<p>BILLS OF SALE AND CHATTEL MORTGAGES-Unless property changes possesion instrument must be registered within five days in the office of the County Court Clerk, otherwise it is void as against creditors. The affidavit of execution must state the date of execution. There are special regulations regarding chattel mortgages and bills of sale in the territorial and provisional districts, both as to place of filing and time of filing. Chattel mortgages must be renewed yearly.</p>
<p>CONTRACTS-Contracts for sale of goods over $40 require part performance or to be in writing, otherwise they are void. Contracts made on Sunday (with few exceptions), and contracts contrary to public policy or of an immoral character, are illegal.</p>
<p>COURTS,JURISDICTION OF-In money claims on contract the jurisdiction of the Division Court extends to $200 and interest in liquidated claims, and $100 in unliquidated claims, that of the County Court to $600 and $200 respectively, and that of the High Court beyond these amounts. In the Division Court a claim is lquidated only by the signature of the parties. Actions respecting partnership accounts, when capital is not over $1000, as well as actions to the extent of $200, in some cases formerly solely within the jurisdiction of the High Court, can now be brought in the County Court. Any action may be brought in High Court, but at risk of cost. Principal and interest on mortgages, billls, notes, bonds, &c., can be sued for separately, though both overdue.</p>
<p>EXECUTION-In the County Court and High Couty execution may issue immediately upon entry of judgment, unless stayed by order of the Court or Judge. Writs of Execution now against both goods and lands remain in force for three years, unless satisfied in the meantime, or withdrawn. Writs may e renewed from times to time for periods of three years each renewal. Lands cannot be sold for one year from the time the writ is delivered to the Sheriff, but debtors' lands are bound from date of delivery of writ to Sheriff.</p>
<p>EXEMPTIONS-The exemptions from seizure under execution and distress are enumerated in the Revised Statutes, Chap. 64, and consist generally of::</p>
<p>1. Beds, bedding and bedsteads in ordinary use.</p>
<p>2. Necessary and ordinary wearing apparel.</p>
<p>3. One cooking stove with pipes, one heating stove with pipes, sewing machine, 30 vols. books, all spinning wheeles and weaving looms, and a large number of articles of furniture, cooking utensils, etc., in all not to exceed the value of $150.</p>

<p>7. Bees reared and kept in hives to the extent of 15 hives. The debtor may elect to take the proceeds of the sale of these up to $100. On death of the debtor these goods go to the widow and family.</p>
<p>EXAMINATION OF JUDGMENT DEBTOR-The judgment debtor may be examined as to his present means and also as to his property at the time debt was incurred, and his disposal of the same, and in the higher courts the transferee may also be examined. Any person in possession of property of the execution debtor may also be examined under order. On examination in the Division Court the Judge may order the debtor to pay the debt in such a way as he deems proper, and in default may issue an order for committal to jail.</p>
<p>FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCES-Conveyances in fraud of creditors are void. Preferences by insolvents are void. Conveyances of creditors by debtors, if attacked within sixty days or made within sixty days before an assignment for the benefit of creditors, are presumed to have been made with intent to defraud or prefer.</p>
<p>GARNISHMENT-Debts due the debtor may be attached in the Division Court at the time of the issue of the summons, but in the County Court and High Court only after judgment. Wages can only be garnisheed when the amount due is more than $25, and the excess over that sum only can be recovered, except in some cases when the debt was incurred for board.</p>
<p>HOLIDAYS-When a holiday falls on a Sunday the next day shall be kept as a holiday in lieu thereof.</p>
<p>INTEREST-The legal rate is now five per cent. on liabilities incurred since 7th day of July, 1900, and when no agreement and interest is payable, that is the rate. Interest at the legal rate is allowed on all written agreements and on all accounts where notice is given that interest would be charged.</p>
<p>JUDGMENTS-Where a defendant, who resides within Ontario, does not defend, judgment may be entered in the higher courts ten days after service of the writ in the action. Where defendant resides in one of the districts, if the writ is served in the winter time, a longer period must elapse. In the Division Courts ten, fifteen or twenty days after service, according to the residence of the defendant. After appearance motion for judgment may be made on two days' notice if no defence shown. In Division Court a two days' notice of motion for judgment may be served with summons.</p>
<p>LIMITATION OF ACTIONS-Action of account must be brought within six years - on contracts under seal, twenty years. Actions on the covenant on a mortgage made after 1st July, 1894, must be broguht within ten years. Part payment or written acknowledgment will extend the time of action.</p>
<p>MARRIED WOMEN-May now contract, carry on business, sue and be sued, in respect of their separate estate, in the same manner as if unmarried. They have the right of dower in all the husband's real estate. Representatives may sell by leave of the Court free from dower.</p>
<p>REGISTRY FOR DEEDS-Instruments for registry must contain a sufficient description of the property mentioned, including the number of the plan, and the execution be verified by affidavit in proper form of a witness present at the time of signature. Registration gives priority. Mortgages and assignments of mortgage need not now be registered in full. The assignee of a mortgage myst register the documents making his title, and the discharge must set them out. Wills need not in certain cases be registered in full.</p>
<p>SHOP REGULATIONS.-No person under the age of ten shall be employed in any shop. No child, girl or woman shall be employed before 7 a.m. or after 6 p.m. except on Saturday or the day before a holiday. Seats are to be provided for female employees. Register of children is to be kept. Shops are to be kept in proper sanitary condition and conveniences provided.</p>
<p>WILLS-Must be in writing, signed at the foot by the testator or some person in his presence at his request, in the presence of two witnesses, both present with him at the same time, and who in his presence, and the presence of each other, sign their names as witnesses. A legacy or devise to a witness, or to a husband or wife of a witness, is void. An executor may be a proper witness. Wills are revoked by marriage, with some exceptions. A minor cannot make a valid will. There is a succession duty payable on property passing on death of owner which is fully set out in 5 Edw. VII, cap. 6, out. This duty can be recovered by suit. It is now determined by the net value.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">QUEBEC.</span></h2>
<p>ASSIGNMENTS-Any unsecured creditor for $200 or over may make a demand of assignment on a debtor who does not pay, and if the latter refuses he may be arrested on a capias. The court, on the advice of the creditors, appoints a curator or trustee who realizes and divides the estate. The debtor is only discharged to the extent of the divident.</p>
<p>ATTACHMENTS-A capias against the person or an attachment against the property of a debtor, may issue before judgment on an affidavit by the creditor or his agent that the debtor is about to abscond or to secrete his property with intent to defraud his creditors, or that he is insolvent and refuses to assign.</p>
<p>BILLS OF EXCHANGE, PROMISSORY NOTES, AND INTEREST-The law of Quebec on these subjects is the same as that of Ontario.</p>
<p>CHATTEL MORTGAGES are not recognized in Quebec. A creditor can only have a lien on chattels by keeping possession of them. An unpaid vendor of chattels or lands has a privilege or preference for the price. In the case of oods sold to insolvent traders, this right must be claimed within thirty days after delivery.</p>
<p>COURTS-Magistrates' courts exist in some districts with jurisdiction up to $50. The Circuit Court in Montreal, Quebec, and the chief town of each district, has jurisdiction up to $100, in outlying towns up to $200. Cases above these amounts go to the Superior Court. Parties to a suit can give evidence on their own behalf. Actions brought on promissory notes, bills, cheques, and for the price of merchandise, are tried summarily. In other cases the delays are long.</p>
<p>EXECUTIONS-Execution against goods and lands cannot issue until 15 days after judgment, except on an affidavit similar to that for attachment above. Goods can be sold after 8 days' notice and land after one month. A sheriff's sale frees land from mortgages. Mortgages rank on the proceeds according to priority.</p>
<p>EXEMPTIONS-The following articles are exempt from seizure :- Beds, bedding and bedsteads used by the family ; their wearing apparel ; two stoves and their appendages; cooking utensils and furniture up to $50; sewing machine if used for earning money; fuel and food for three months; a span of horses or yoke of oxen, 1 cow, 2 pigs, 4 sheep, plough, harrow, cart, etc.; tools up to $200; 15 hives of bees; three-fourths of workmen's wages; any money or objects given or bequeathed for aliment or on condition of their being exempt from seizure.</p>
<p>JUDGMENTS-A judgment is good for thirty years. If the defendant is insolvent a judgmetn gives the plaintiff no preference, except for the costs if a sale takes place under it.</p>
<p>LIMITATION-Promissory notes and accounts are prescribed or outlawed in five years from the time they become due.</p>
<p>MARRIED WOMEN-A married woman may carry on business; if she has no separate estate by marriage contract or judgment of the court, the husband also is liable for her business debts. A woman cannot bind herself with or for her husband for his debts.</p>
